INTRODUCTION In this type of “as-applied” constitutional challenge requesting extraordinary relief from otherwise constitutional ballot access requirements, the facts determine the outcome. Here, the critical facts are that Governor Dunleavy’s stay-at-home order was lifted before the Alaska Libertarian Party (ALP) started gathering in-person signatures, Case 3:20-cv-00127-JWS Document 11 Filed 06/29/20 Page 1 of 19 and—assuming ALP’s assertions about signature gathering efforts are true—all ALP had to do was gather nine signatures per circulator per day to meet Alaska law’s minimal threshold to get on the ballot. These facts do not justify extraordinary relief. Alaska law on signature gathering is already quite permissive. Unlike the stricter ballot access requirements in other states requiring in-person

  • Conservative Statement to End Death Penalty with 250+ Signatories
    Statement of Support to End the Death Penalty We have come to the conclusion that the death penalty does not work and can’t be made to work, not in spite of our conservative principles, but because of them. There are many reasons why growing numbers of conservatives are questioning the death penalty. Some of us are concerned that instead of making us safer, capital punishment has proven to be a costly and ineffective government program. Others of us are concerned that the death penalty makes too many mistakes. Still others are concerned that the death penalty has no place in a culture seeking to promote life. In light of its track record, we call on our fellow conservatives to reexamine the death penalty and demonstrate the leadership needed to end this failed policy.

SCOTT In May 1975, Ludwig Glaeser, then curator of the Mies van der Rohe Archive at New York’s Museum of Modern Art (MoMA), presented a paper entitled “Architectural Studies for a Space Habitat” at the Conference on Space Manufacturing Facilities (Space Colonies) jointly organized by Princeton University, the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA), and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). Trained as an architect and art historian in Berlin dur - ing the 1950s, Glaeser joined MoMA in 1963; he was appointed associate curator in 1964, curator of architecture in 1968, and head of the Mies archive in 1972. 1 Hailing from an institution avowedly committed to architecture’s aesthetic dimensions, Glaeser’s expertise might appear somewhat out of place at a conference dedicated to advancing the scientific, technical, and commercial aspects of space colonization. Glaeser in fact refused to offer an image of what a future space colony might look like or to make aesthetic arguments, and his presentation was received as unduly pessimistic and out of sync with the heroic space colony visions of Princeton physics professor Gerard K. O’Neill, around which the NASA-funded conference was organized. Yet, in retrospect,
